Radical cascade cyclization reactions are highly attractive synthetic tools for the construction of polycyclic molecules in organic synthesis. While it has been successfully implemented in diastereoselective synthesis of natural products and other complex compounds, radical cascade cyclization faces a major challenge of controlling enantioselectivity. As the first application of metalloradical catalysis (MRC) for controlling enantioselectivity as well as diastereoselectivity in radical cascade cyclization, we herein report the development of a Co(II)-based catalytic system for asymmetric radical bicyclization of 1,6-enynes with diazo compounds. Through the fine-tuning of D2-symmetric chiral amidoporphyrins as the supporting ligands, the Co(II)-catalyzed radical cascade process, which proceeds in a single operation under mild conditions, enables asymmetric construction of multisubstituted cyclopropane-fused tetrahydrofurans bearing three contiguous stereogenic centers, including two all-carbon quaternary centers, in high yields with excellent stereoselectivities. Combined computational and experimental studies have shed light on the underlying stepwise radical mechanism for this new Co(II)-based cascade bicyclization that involves the relay of several Co-supported C-centered radical intermediates, including α-, β-, γ-, and ?-metalloalkyl radicals. The resulting enantioenriched cyclopropane-fused tetrahydrofurans that contain a trisubstituted vinyl group at the bridgehead, as showcased in several stereospecific transformations, may serve as useful intermediates for stereoselective organic synthesis. The successful demonstration of this new asymmetric radical process via Co(II)-MRC points out a potentially general approach for controlling enantioselectivity as well as diastereoselectivity in synthetically attractive radical cascade reactions.

A Pd-catalyzed regioselective C?H alkenylation of allylic alcohols with electron-deficient alkenes has been developed. The key to success is the introduction of bidentately coordinating phenanthroline directing group, which enables the otherwise challenging and regioselective C?H activation at the proximal alkenyl C?H bonds over the conceivably competitive allylic C?O bond activation. The same Pd/phenanthroline system is efficient for the C?H alkynylation of allylic alcohols with alkynyl bromides.
Visible-Light Mediated Hydrosilylative and Hydrophosphorylative Cyclizations of Enynes and Dienes

Described herein is a visible-light mediated intermolecular radical cyclization approach to access heterocycles. Heteroatom radicals, such as silicon and phosphorus atom radicals, were generated via direct hydrogen atom abstraction by the photoexcited catalyst species with hydro-silanes and phosphine oxides. The radical addition/cyclization/HAT (hydrogen atom transfer) reaction sequences of 1,6-enynes and 1,6-dienes were highly efficient delivering the desired heterocycles in good yields.

Liu, Feng,Liu, Jia-Li,tu, Jia-Lin
, p. 7369 - 7372 (2020/10/05)
We report herein an unprecedented protocol for radical cyclization of aldehydes with pendant alkenes via synergistic photoredox, cobaloxime, and amine catalysis. The transformation was achieved in the absence of external oxidants, providing a variety of 5-, 6-, and 7-membered ring products with alkene transposition in satisfactory yields. The reaction exhibits wide functional group compatibility and occurs under mild conditions with extrusion of H2.

, p. 357 - 363 (2019/02/20)
A reusable and highly enantioselective catalyst for the intramolecular cyclopropanation of various diazo ester and Weinreb amide derivatives was developed. The reactions catalyzed by a water-soluble Ru(II)-Amm-Pheox catalyst proceeded smoothly at room temperature, affording the corresponding bicyclic cyclopropane ring-fused lactones and lactams in high yields (up to 99%) with excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee). After screening of various catalysts, the Ru(II)-Amm-Pheox complex having an ammonium group proved to be crucial for the intramolecular cyclopropanation reaction in a water/ether biphasic medium. The water-soluble catalyst could be reused at least six times with little loss in yield and enantioselectivity.

A novel strategy for the synthesis of δ-thiolactones from inexpensive and readily available ?-unsaturated esters has been developed. This strategy incorporates a radical acyl thiol-ene reaction as the key C-S bond forming step. Cyclization is achieved via a Steglich-type thiolactonization of 5-mercaptopentanoic acids. We report the facile and scalable synthesis of δ-thiolactones in moderate to good yield under mild reaction conditions with tolerance for a range of functional groups.
Synthesis of Cyclobutene-Fused Eight-Membered Carbocycles through Gold-Catalyzed Intramolecular Enyne [2+2] Cycloaddition
Iwai, Tomohiro,Ueno, Masahiro,Okochi, Hiori,Sawamura, Masaya
, p. 670 - 675 (2017/12/26)
Cationic gold(I) complexes with hollow-shaped triethynylphosphine ligands efficiently catalyzed intramolecular [2+2] cycloaddition of 1,9-enynes to afford cyclobutene-fused eight-membered carbocycles that were difficult to synthesize by other catalytic systems. Various 1,9-enynes with carbon linkers with or without a fused ring underwent efficient [2+2] cycloaddition with 5 mol% of the Au catalyst bearing the triarylmethyl-end-capped triethynylphosphine in CH2Cl2 at rt in the presence of MS 4A as an additive. More challenging 1,9-enyne substrates with fully saturated acyclic carbon linkers underwent eight-membered ring formation at 60 °C in ClCH2CH2Cl in the absence of MS 4A, forming monocyclic 1,3-dienes as major products. (Figure presented.).

, p. 1613 - 1616 (2018/03/23)
The first example of formylation of allylzinc reagents using S-phenyl thioformate is presented. The reaction proceeded under mild conditions without any transition-metal catalyst, forming quaternary carbon centers with reactive functionalities, such as formyl and vinyl groups. Moreover, Barbier-type formylation of an allylic bromide with a sterically demanding thioformate was achieved. As a preliminary result, asymmetric formylation was conducted using a menthol-derived chiral thioformate.

McCourt, Ruairi O.,Dénès, Fabrice,Sanchez-Sanz, Goar,Scanlan, Eoin M.
, p. 2948 - 2951 (2018/05/28)
A new synthetic approach to thiolactones that employs an efficient acyl thiol-ene (ATE) or acyl thiol-yne (ATY) cyclization to convert unsaturated thiocarboxylic acid derivatives into thiolactones under very mild conditions is described. The high overall yields, fast kinetics, high diastereoselectivity, excellent regiocontrol, and broad substrate scope of these reaction processes render this a very useful approach for diversity-oriented synthesis and drug discovery efforts. A detailed computational rationale is provided for the observed regiocontrol.
Transition Metal Free Cycloamination of Prenyl Carbamates and Ureas Promoted by Aryldiazonium Salts
Abrams, Roman,Lefebvre, Quentin,Clayden, Jonathan
, p. 13587 - 13591 (2018/09/25)
Upon treatment with aryldiazonium salts, prenyl carbamates and ureas undergo redox-neutral azocycloamination. In general, N-aryl O-prenyl carbamates cyclize in a photocatalytic reaction with visible light and an organic dye. With electron-deficient diazonium salts, electronic matching with an electron-rich N-aryl substituent results in a reaction proceeding in the ground state, without either light or photocatalyst. Cyclic voltammetry suggests that this radical reaction is initiated by hydrogen-atom abstraction mediated by an aryl radical, followed by a radical addition cascade and proton-coupled hole propagation. The reaction proceeds at room temperature in short reaction times, and a range of functional groups is tolerated.
